Are all "moon cakes for online celebrities" really like "honey talk"?

The reporter found that some gimmicks of "abalone moon cakes" and "health moon cakes" are often greater than the essence. The reporter tried to buy an "abalone moon cake" with a price of 268 yuan online. In its ingredient list, the reporter saw that the abalone content was more than 3%, but under questioning, the store explained that abalone was "abalone flavor, not abalone meat". Some consumers commented under another store selling "abalone moon cakes" that "abalone is rare, just like eating steamed stuffed buns". In addition, a "health moon cake" in the online store also sells well. Four kinds of medicinal materials, Radix Rehmanniae Preparata, Radix Angelicae Sinensis, Radix Paeoniae Alba and Rhizoma Ligustici Chuanxiong, are clearly marked in the ingredients, and it is claimed in the propaganda that the moon cake has the effects of "regulating menstruation and removing blood stasis, invigorating the middle energizer and nourishing yin".
In this regard, the national first-class health manager said that from the effect level, health care generally requires a certain course of treatment, but moon cakes are seasonal foods and are often eaten only once or twice. It is impossible to achieve some results.
